Aastra's IP phones for Microsoft^® Lync^™ join our award winning line of IP phones. It is no longer necessary to have a phone connected to an operating PC to enjoy the benefits of Lync. Both models of Aastra’s Microsoft Lync phones are true stand-alone IP phones and have the Microsoft Lync 2010 Phone Edition embedded in the phone. This combination provides for the fullest Lync feature set available, including simplified installation, management and configuration.

When connected to a local desktop PC via a USB cable, the 6725ip’s presence indication button shows, at a glance, the user’s presence status that is being presented to their colleagues. It also has the advantage of enabling desktop PC phone control, multi-media call escalation and synchronized PC and phone locking.

Whether you choose the 6725ip with its “Better Together” desktop link, or the entry level 6721ip, both models are designed for everyday desktop use and include dual Gigabit Ethernet ports and message waiting light indicators.
